Big Thunder Mountain Railroad Temporary Closure at Walt Disney World

Now's your chance to hop aboard the wildest ride in the wilderness! Big Thunder Mountain Railroad will be temporarily closing until 2026.

Beginning January 6, 2025, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad will temporarily close for refurbishment at Walt Disney World. The attraction is expected to reopen in 2026. The Walt Disney Company has said that the ride will reopen “with a little bit of new magic.” Further details about the ride’s update have not been announced. While we are sad to see this attraction inoperable for such an extended period of time, we are excited to see what new additions and updates are on the way!

If you would like to visit Walt Disney World and experience Big Thunder Mountain Railroad one last time before its temporary closure, contact one of our agents at 407&Beyond Vacation Co. We can help you book and plan a trip, no matter how long or short you wish to visit.
